What this means for you
Highest-severity recall. Risk of serious injury or death is documented or strongly suspected. Stop using the product now and follow the agency's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The agency classification is FDA Class I, which per the rubric mandates a score of at least 4, and the presence of Listeria monocytogenes, a high-risk pathogen, in a ready-to-eat food product typically elevates the severity to Critical (5) due to the potential for serious health consequences.
